ABOUT PRODUCTID 2785
The 'Krokus' saucer is a design by Wincenty Potacki, produced by ZPS Ćmielów in 1962. Made from high-quality porcelain, it features a deep cobalt blue covering most of the surface, contrasted by a white central area. The decoration consists of three dynamic, diagonal white bands, each bordered with hand-applied gold lines, and a fine gilded rim. The finish is glossy and smooth, with a bold, geometric composition characteristic of the mid-century modern style of the 1960s. The saucer’s proportions—wide rim and slightly recessed center—highlight its function as a classic cup companion. The condition is without damage, and the gilding remains intact. The shape and colors evoke a sense of movement and energy, while the interplay of cobalt, white, and gold creates a feeling of graphic clarity. The porcelain's reflective surface enhances the depth and subtle variation of the colors. 'Krokus' embodies restrained modernity, recalling the atmosphere of Polish modernism where decoration arises from the simplicity of form and bold color marks the everyday ritual. The saucer can be paired with a cup from the same line or with minimalist porcelain to emphasize the geometric pattern. It will work well in both classic arrangements and contemporary kitchens or living rooms. It can be combined with textiles in white, navy, or gray and highlighted with metallic accessories—such as a gold spoon or a subtle tray. Placed on a wooden or light-colored table, it will bring out the porcelain’s color and sheen. Soft lighting will accentuate the gilded accents and the purity of the form, creating a harmonious, calm setting for daily use or a collector’s display.
